The bright, short-duration GRB 250612C
(Fermi-GBM detection: The Fermi GBM team, GCN 40704;
Neights and Meegan, GCN 40713;
BALROG localization: Preis and Greiner, GCN 40706;
SVOM-GRM detection: Wang et al., GCN 40708;
GRID detection: Yang et al., GCN 40732;
Konus-Wind detection: Frederiks et al., GCN 40746)
was detected by Fermi (GBM trigger 771432801), SVOM (GRM), Konus-Wind,
and GRID at about 53596 s UT (14:53:16).
We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box
whose coordinates are:
-------------------------------
RA(2000), deg Dec(2000), deg
-------------------------------
Center:
115.493 18.574
Corners:
116.886 22.070
116.633 22.036
113.718 15.372
113.864 15.182
--------------------------------
The error box area is 5.5 sq. deg, and its maximum
dimension is 7 deg (the minimum one is 14.7 arcmin).
The Sun distance was 33 deg.
This localization may be improved.
The IPN localization is consistent with, but reduces the area of,
the Fermi-GBM (GCN 40704) and BALROG (GCN 40706) localizations.
